SUMMARY:Self-Evolving and Transformative (SET) Protocol Architecture for 6G
DESCRIPTION:The fusion of digital and real worlds in all dimensions will be the driving force for future sixth-generation (6G) wireless systems. Ubiquitous in-time and on-time communication services between humans\, machines\, robots\, and their virtual counterparts are essential\, and they expand from the ground to air\, space\, underground\, and deep sea. 6G systems are not only data pipelines but also large-scale distributed computing systems with integrated sensing\, processing\, storage\, communication and computing capabilities. It is challenging to build ubiquitous and intelligent 6G systems\, handling stringent quality-of-service (QoS) requirements\, providing a rich set of communication modes\, including unicast\, multicast\, broadcast\, in-cast\, and group-cast\, and supporting user-centric mobile applications. In this talk\, we introduce a new protocol architecture\, Self-Evolving and Transformative (SET) architecture that can provide a wide range of control functions\, and be intelligently configured for different types of 6G applications and networking environments. Its design principles\, potentials\, and open issues are discussed. We also introduce a use case applying the architecture to develop a mobility-aware multi-path QUIC protocol for satellite networks. \nBiography of the speaker:\nLin Cai is a Professor with the Department of ECE at the University of Victoria. She is an NSERC E.W.R. Steacie Memorial Fellow\, an Engineering Institute of Canada (EIC) Fellow\, and an IEEE Fellow. In 2020\, she was elected as a Member of the Royal Society of Canada’s College of New Scholars\, Artists and Scientists\, and a 2020 “Star in Computer Networking and Communications” by N2Women. Her research interests span several areas in communications and networking\, focusing on network protocol and architecture design supporting emerging multimedia traffic and the Internet of Things. She was a recipient of the NSERC Discovery Accelerator Supplement (DAS) Grants in 2010 and 2015\, respectively. She has co-founded and chaired the IEEE Victoria Section Vehicular Technology and Communications Joint Societies Chapter. She is an elected member of the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society (VTS) Board of Governors\, 2019 – 2024. She is the Associate Editor-in-Chief for IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology and has served as a Distinguished Lecturer of both the IEEE VTS Society and the IEEE ComSoc Society. \nAll are welcome.

SUMMARY:Advancing Network Management for Ubiquitous and Intelligent 6G Connectivity
DESCRIPTION:In the imminent era of 6G communications\, unprecedented advancements will reshape our technological landscape and redefine the boundaries of the digital experience. 6G will enable two main features: ubiquitous communications via satellite-terrestrial integrated networks and intelligent connections. It is expected that 6G will significantly amplify network capabilities through advanced communication techniques such as AI methods and low-cost satellite communications\, but this also ushers in new challenges to network management in 6G. In this talk\, we will first discuss extended use cases and potential network architectures in 6G. We will then focus on two case studies for network management to support two representative 6G use cases: connected autonomous driving and satellite-terrestrial integrated networks\, respectively. The first case study centers on enhancing resource scheduling for timely and reliable edge computing in autonomous driving\, while the second delves into developing agile and scalable service provision for ultra-remote real-time services with long transmission distances and stringent delay requirements in satellite-terrestrial integrated networks. In both case studies\, we will highlight the indispensable role of AI in network management\, aiming to provide seamless connectivity and meet diverse service demands in the 6G era. \nBiography of the speaker:\nDr. Lian Zhao is a professor at the Department of Electrical\, Computer\, & Biomedical Engineering at Toronto Metropolitan University. She has been an IEEE Communication Society (ComSoc) and IEEE Vehicular Technology (VTS) Distinguished Lecturer (DL); received the Best Land Transportation Paper Award from IEEE Vehicular Technology Society in 2016\, Best Paper Award from the 2013 International Conference on Wireless Communications and Signal Processing (WCSP)\, and the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) New Opportunity Research Award in 2005. She has been serving as an Editor for IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications\, IEEE Internet of Things Journal\, and IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology. She served as a General Chair for 2023 ComSoc Frontier Networking Symposium (FNS)\, co-Chair of Wireless Communication Symposium for IEEE Globecom 2020 and IEEE ICC 2018; Finance co-Chair for 2021 ICASSP; Local Arrangement co-Chair for IEEE VTC Fall 2017 and IEEE Infocom 2014. She has been an elected member for the Board of Governor (BoG) since 2023. She has severed as a panel expert in various federal\, provincial\, and international evaluation committees. \nAll are welcome.
